What can I do about my nose that keeps getting bigger as I get older? (photos)

StacyLK
My nose has been changing quite a bit over the last several years. I’ve always had a normal straight nose, but it has gotten bigger as I get older. The tip seems to be bulbous. I’m not a drinker, and always have an SPF of 30 on my face and neck. I’ve tried using make up to lessen the look of my nose, but I just end up looking a drag queen. I’m pushing 60 and take care of myself. Gravity is not doing me any favors, but do I have any options besides having rhinoplasty? Thank you.
